The Journey... an update...


 Slow, Satisfying and Expensive.

Slowly I am getting a handle on the camera(s) and the film stock(s).

I am finding my vibe with the Polaroid film combined with the Mint SLR670 iType Ming Edition (aka SX70).

Really hard to love the Polaroid i2 but trying to get it to give me something of consistency is becoming IMPOSSIBLE (pun intended).

Thinking how to use the Polaroids for street photography is going to be a challenge.  Instead of being discreate, the sounds from the cameras will blow it.  The Mint TL and RF cameras have an advantage where the film does not eject until you are ready.  That's going to be a big plus since I can take a shot and not be noticed with the sounds of the camera.

The image above was scanned with the Polaroid app which does an ok job but doesn't do the photo justice.  This shot of the cat house in the backyard is far better than what you see here.

The journey continues...
